Rain+Bricks=Slip 'n' Slide

Rain: water that is condensed from the aqueous vapor in the atmosphere and falls to earth in drops more than 1 / 50  in. (0.5 mm) in diameter. Yup that's right there is definitely a technical definition of rain. It's more than water just falling from the sky. Believe me when I say it's more than just water falling from clouds.

As any college student knows, there is one necessity that you MUST have when walking around a college campus, whether it be raining, sleeting, or snowing(which doesn't happen often here in this part of Wonderland). Rainboots. Yes that's all. Here on campus everything, literally, is made from brick. A brick business owner decided to donate so many bricks each year if and only if they were all used in some way every year. I know It's a TON (probably literally) of bricks!! But at least we know the big bad wold will never be able to blow us away....especially considering our mascot is a wolf....so much irony!

Anyways, rain means that the bricks are wet, which makes bricks slippery if you don't know. It also means that shoes will become soaked and so will socks and pants and everything!! Remember I like so many other college student WALK everywhere. In any sort of weather. Slippery bricks means lots of slipping people who have no traction on their wet shoes on wet slippery bricks. 

So what do they need?!?! RAINBOOTS!!! I love mine! They've saved my life int he literal sense. If you must know HossBoss, aka me, is notorious for falling, slipping and dropping things. And the traction on my boots is the best! And I bought them from Walmart! Holla!!

Give me an R! Give me an A! Give me an I! Give me an N! Give me BOOTS! What does that spell?!?! A college students necessity!!
